'Never Ricking Morty' maybe be the STRANGEST episode of Rick and Morty ever! It also may be one of the most genius. You see, this episode was the writers talking to us fans of the show. They were breaking the 5th wall, if you will. Yes, 5th. Rick and Morty won't just settle for 4 or below, they have to take it to a whole new level - one full of evil Mr. Poopybutthole, Evil Morty, half gone Ticket Takers, and more! What was hiding behind the absurdity of this episode? Hand over your tickets because you are about to board the Theory Train!

"Used by MatPat as a narrative device to make a point" is going into my CV.
At least there will be something interesting to look at in that CV
@@nguyenduyphuc3924 XD
Cool
What does CV mean!
Your central vocabulary?
I really do find it funny, though sad, that people got incredibly mad at the episode because of the fact that it basically made people feel like their "fan theories" on how the show will go/end were... well mocked. They felt like "Now it won't happen because they did this." and that's all they're mad about. Also, I never noticed how "Quality" wasn't a part of the machine, that's a really cool detail.
I didn't like it because it insulted my intelligence using meta "jokes" about story writing, from a show that's had a sharp decline in writing for some time. Most people don't care about theories, because they don't have them. Most people just watch the show to enjoy it.
@@CuppaFalcon what does this comment mean? You didn't like it because it "insulted your intelligence" but then you generalize and contradict yourself
@@icegod1 Sorry, where did I contradict myself? It seems like a pretty readable comment.
CuppaFalcon not really, you said how it insulted your intelligence than saying that you enjoyed the show...like what are you trying to say, that you like the show or not
@@CuppaFalcon you said it insulted your intelligence and then you just want to enjoy the show. That's contradicting brotha
I feel this episode was sort of vent art for the creators, let them get out their stress in a creative way but also make one that is able to be seen by their audience so they can get an understanding of their thoughts
Thisis my favorite episode.
The Rick and north episode or the film theory one lol
Hands down my favorite lines ever come from this episode. The first was "you watch youbtubers reacting to other youtubers, ill decide how meta this gets." And "don't worry morty, nothing out there is cannon"
You can make whatever theories you want about this show and they’re all true. Infinite universes means it has to be true in at least one of them.
No. There is only one evil morty. And it's ruined now
TinyKittenKisses infinite universes mean more than one evil morty but I understand what you mean
@@charliebrayn1353 If all the universes are different then one could never have the exact same experience as its parallel. Even if they're mostly the same and one thing changes they will never be the same person because of that

Let me rephrase your comment ahem.
Matpat this story has so many layers.
Shrek am i a joke to you
The simpsons is a great example of what the writers are trying to avoid
You shitting on Rick and Morty or The Simpsons or both?
@@captainjakemerica4579 I think he's saying that the Simpsons often resets after each episode so each seems like it's a filler, like Morty's mindblowers or interdimensional cable. and that worked out great for the Simpsons writers. However, the writers of Rick and Morty want the show to have structure and character arcs, something the Simpsons doesn't have. and I am a fan of both but Rick and Morty is better in my opinion.
Good point well I say so far Rick and Morty hits a great balance of episodic and ongoing arcs
@@captainjakemerica4579 I completely agree, Rick and Morty is indescribable in that feeling you get from watching it. I was trying to get my friend to watch it and I told him about the dragon episode, I can tell you the look on his face was amazing, he turned to another friend of ours and questioned him about it, he became more horrified. He watched it though. I think he thinks I'm weird. I have no clue what the point of that was, sorry for wasting your time have a good night mate.
@@StarcanWHAT I see yeah I say the show is a good balance of comedy heart and drama
The 3rd Wall: Characters able the break the mold and done the unexpected.
The 4th Wall: Characters who gain awareness of their own fictional existence; "pierce the veil".
The 5th Wall: Breaking through the veil to realize their world exists as a marketing tool of cosmic beings.
The 6th Wall: finding the cosmic beings are also story-based with beings writing stories about THEM.
Hol up
More like breaking through the viel to realise that they only broke through the veil because cosmic beings (writers) want them to
i'm pretty sure the fifth and sixth walls are the ceiling and the floor, but i don't know which is which

When the characters explained that this episode isn't canon, I thought of Matpat and laughed.
It was as if Dan and Justin said "don't even bother theorizing about this one, Matty."
How I took the 5th wall:
Shows are expected to constantly one-up themselves. How do you one-up breaking the 4th wall? By breaking the 5th wall! Doesn't matter that this isn't a thing, just do it.
Basically they will invade our reality
Takes a lot to make a stew
I thought that by that they meant "breaking the 8th wall, the 4th wall of the audience's reality".
No, it's not 16 walls, Deadpool.
Give me a baconator.
@@originaldave8216 thanks a lot, now i got too many cooks stuck in my head lol
Maybe the fifth wall is the celling.
It would be really f*cked up if they ended the show with them going back in time and to when rick asked morty to pass the screw driver and fixed every thing making the show an endless loop.
@AncientAstronautTheorist they would make multiple time lines .
I mean alternat timelines.
Rick doesn’t do time travel tho, he doesn’t respect it
@@benjaf1058 that and it dangerous
@@benjaf1058 yet in the snake episode he used time travel to solve his problem.

Tastes bad
Wasnt the episode a big middle finger to theorists
They don’t do the typical “set up of events for an epic conclusion” schtick. They go for the most unpredictable and awesome of the plot twists. S4 finale definitely redeemed itself.
Well I think that so far they gave a bunch of them, maybe they enjoy messing with theorists.

@@Stettafire Yep, but it doesn't help that both the US government and media don't just say, "We can't anounce with absolute certainty what the object was, so we will only speculate in the attached studies rather than conclude any specific outcome".
@ULGROTHA Can we get that in English?
That is because people are fucking retarded sadly matpat has become one of the idiots of the internet.

so just call it 2020: Murphys Law
but if the events of this year were put into a movie, people would say your trying too hard cause there is no way all those things could happen in a year lol
Theres a show by the creators of phineas and ferb called milo murphys law heavily underrated yall should check it out doesnt have to many seasons tho sadly
I personally love that Rick explained the Bechdel test in a way to make us understand that the makers of R&M understand what the test is and why it's a thing, just to make sure that we understand that they're not making fun of the test itself.
The episode shows that the test is stupid. You can do a sexist story that passes the test, as Rick and Morty do. And you can make a story for example about a woman who tries to escape from a toxic relationship in which she doesn't talk with any woman, and it will be a lot more of the taste of a feminist.
@@harlizuga that depends on the way you interpret the test. The way it's classicly described is definitely stupid in this way, but what the test is actually for is to check if the female characters are actual characters instead of just objects to be interacted with.
The intention of the test is reasonable, it's just that the best-known interpretation of it is stupid
The only thing that’s very clear in this mental labyrinth of an episode is that they’re lampooning it and calling it stupid, generally any way you try to apply a “test” to story writing is easily bypassed and like in this case, you can always write a story that completely reverses it’s intent and still pass it, likewise you can usually do the opposite just as easily and still not pass it. Stories along with any art have infinite contexts so hard rules don’t work well with creativity
I'm really glad that he made a breakdown of this episode because I had no idea what was happening when I watched it. This really clears things up for me.
Which is why you are blind to what is going on in the world please pay attention these next two years it's gonna get exciting

Two random thoughts came to mind and they just linger in my mind:
1) There's no hidden meaning to "the fifth wall", it's just "the fourth wall plus one", rendering the concept silly in a Monty Python kind of way.
2) A show that comes to mind having an incredibly creative and daring first season then getting sabotaged by network greed taking it over is Ren & Stimpy on Nickelodeon back in the early 90s.
What would be the best "Rick Roll" of all time would if the series actually did end using that prayer bit, in some part of Rick's arc of embracing traditional family values.
“Too Many Cooks” a short film produced by (ironically enough) Adult Swim
Luke Wilson omg I remember that!!
Too Many Cooks the best 80s sitcom ever. Sadly went off the air in a time before the internet due to trying to please much too large a fanbase. Really too bad that it never made it to dvd because the masters of the episodes tragically were lost in a warehouse fire. At least they were able to stitch together all the opening credit scenes and they can still be seen on CZcams.
No one was ready for too many cooks lol
@@lisaarmstrong5461 remember the episode when they had to many cooks? Great times

Well, maybe too many cooks will spoil the broth

After the episode i visited the website story-train.com or what was it? And i sent me to a website of rick and morty where it was a rick and morty marathon of all episodes, probably even on adult swim.
Ha, still works 😊 just without the stream.
Not to mention extremely blasphemous.
It isn't the first time he has done it though. He actively and fervently prays, then renegs in the time splitting episode with the testical monsters "please oh god hear my prayers - F u god!" He's pragmatic and understands that he doesn't know everything, so the ol hail Mary while not his go-to, is a viable last resort in the sense that it 'might' work.

Hi Matt Pack, I actually don't think the story clock structure is absent at all in the interdimensional cable episode despite Rick referring to is as a one-off. In that episode, although the title is "Interdimensional cable" the true story clock narrative follows the relationship between Jerry and Beth. If you map their progression throughout the episode it matches the structure Dan Harmon uses almost perfectly- but what makes it different from some others is that they used it as a base, so they can then have their other characters (Rick and Morty) do anything they wanted and deliver as many random jokes and ideas that the audiences love.
It creates the illusion that the entire episode was random joke, while at the same time providing a fulfilling a character arc within Jerry and Beth behind the scenes subconsciously.
the A plot of those EPs IS the cable their watching, the B plot is just there to do something with the characters that wouldn't partake in such event
we need an episode named "rick n roll" where rick and morty needs to sing a rock song or something like that
have u not heard of get schwifty?
What about an episode in that they go back in time to the 50s in a car and teenager beth falls in love with morty, well, just to make it more obvious a thunder is supposed to strike a clock or something.
or it's just a straight up rick roll. with rick.
Just an episode with rick astley.
"He praises Morty for buying merchandise"

“TV Theories” Nice to see we got a separate playlist for them now.
Honestly it’s weird to think that there are 4 sides on the Game/Film Theory logo and only 2 of them have gotten a subset in all this time. It feels like there should be 4 channels instead of 2.

Well, there was that brief moment in time where the Game Theory intro featured a yellow side? (Bottom left)
Well there used to be one, then they stopped putting TV theories onto it for some reason, but now they’re back!
So now we have 2 channels and three collection, game theory, film theory and tv theory, with the first being the biggest; now we need one more

I honestly feel like this might be the most important rick and morty episode in the entirety of the show. After you went in depth with it, I not only 100% agree with your points about it, it also gives me a certain amount of closure no matter what direction the show ends up going in. No matter how it ends, this episode is here to make a statement and even tease an alternative ending. It also makes me feel like fan fiction is actually a good idea in this instance.

I love this theory, especially because I’m a story writer myself and the fear of becoming a sellout one day is very present. I’m always enjoying your theories Matpat, thank you for making them. And I’m looking forward to your upcoming Scooby Doo and Rick & Morty theories!
What stories do you write?
I'm not popular enough to see 'sellout' in my future. Good for you that you've got this far.
The capitalism part is true though, you eventually have to sell out to reach more people because things don’t become popular without broad appeal. Especially shows.
You really don’t have to you just make more money that way
Yep, as someone who has followed a singer who started out here on CZcams. I see the whole, need to sell out to keep the money flowing problem
"relatability"
ah yes. i, too, turn myself into a pickle to escape family therapy
I too, worship giant heads floating in the skies. Practicing my singing to please them so my planet doesn't get blown up

@Azazel Dreciare sounds like a line from an Eminem song 🤷🏻♂️
@Azazel Dreciare it sounds like it what more do you want?
11:00 my interpretation was how solely focusing on whether or not something "passes" the bechdel test (duvernay test, vito russo test, ect.) as a metric of quality often doesn't make for a good story (or often even good representation). the bechdel test was coined as a humourously low bar that should be ubiquitous in most media and treating it like a boolean for whether a show is "good" or "bad" at representation misses the point. plenty of media with good representation doesnt pass it. plenty of media with bad representation does (morty's "story" is the example of this).
im not going to pretend to know what the actual intention of this scene was but i do know rick and morty has a great deal of female writers. i dont think it was entirely roiland and harmon venting their frustration, as your graphics kinda suggest.
I think the side-story with Beth and Summer killing the scorpions is also about how you can technically pass the Bechdel test, but do so in a half-assed, non-sensical way. That writing up something lazy just to pass this test shouldn't really be considered an achievement and wasn't the point of the test in the first place.
I’m so glad I’m not the only one who looked up the story train. (Edit thanks this is most liked comment and also when I looked it up the episode was still premiering)

ShmolKid i hope it is lmao
i don’t understand why people dont like filler episodes. it’s great to just watch something i don’t need to understand completely + it’s easy and it continues a show i love
All I'm here to say is: Matthew Patrick's theory came true and is canon!
you mean matrick pathew
I got the impression that the Bechdel test section was also to demonstrate just amazingly low a bar that test actually is
The test is ridiculous. Why should riders be limited because they feel they need to fulfil a mislead and absurd agenda. Not only this but be prosecuted if they don't
The last time I was this early, Evil Morty was still supposed to be canon
Morty can't be cool. How could you, even for a moment, believe that the offspring of Jerry could be cool? Just stay in the car.
Well I am curious to what happened to Citadel?
Wait, he isn't?
if he's not they fucked up a great plot line
Honestly that’s really shitty of them to act like there’s a whole bigger scope of story for us to look forward to and there’s not so I ain’t watching it anymore
While watching the video, I had an idea I wanted to share: What if there was a story train with junctions on the tracks? Would that mean there was a story train with 2 formulas for the stories?
1:00 did anyone else hear the gravity falls music in the title sequence??
So basically, soon as Rick and Morty becomes bad, Dan Harmon will be going through an existential crisis
but then he'll be ready to do the Community movie

GoT deserves those jabs.
story train dot com does exist, it redirects to the official rick and morty website
and +www also exists. It is some kind of reserved.
Last few days it showed error, but now it shows advertising for
Rick And Morty Merch
Learn To Write for Television
Online Ticketing System
@@ivanskif I looked it up up the day the episode was released and it showed the official Rick and Morty website
When you realize Rick and Morty actually DID time travel...
*.... and write the definition of the word META*
0:58 I can reassure you Mat, that if we were indeed in the Rick And Morty universe, you would’ve already broken the 4th wall by now.
I like how the episode's name is a reference to never-ending story
So that's what it was!
THE NEVER- ENDING STORYYYYYYY
I wanted a luck dragon when I was young
Daedalus Game I mean it’s old but yes it’s good
@@soviet_monke I'm 37 & I still want a luck dragon
the link isn't broken, it redirects to the main rick and morty site
Lol
the night of the premiere on tv, it did nothing. now, a week later, it redirects to their website.
@@oki.k Must've been the traffic. It was working a day later
Remember when the Hornets were a concern for all of a week
It would have been really funny if the fourth channel ended up being called conspiracy theory
When did they start calling hamburgers "sandwiches"? Are they trying to sound healthier? It's a burger. Embrace it.
Burgers were a sandwich created in Hamburg, Germany and there for called hamburgers. Yes, they are sandwiches
@@Orion_44 "Every Hamburger is a Sandwich, but not every Sandwich is a Hamburger."
A hot dog is a small bologna sub sandwich.
What can I say, Rick and Morty is well written, just like these Film/TV theories.
It's nice to see you again
Even when i am in the depths of CZcams i can expect to see you
Why don’t you have a mustache yet you deserve one
You again
hey
Something I just realized is that the Story Train is a quip to a filmmaking tool called a "Story Engine", which is a tool to create more episodes of a show, going further on this episode.
16:16 That music makes me think of Bobby Roode's mustache...
Can always go for a mustache break. Jam That Jam
0:14 When you were making that little list, You forgot to add The WW3 Threats, and The Australia Fires,
Cagefreeowl strike That wasn’t in march
@@Tommy-gq5ik 2020 though
And the locusts in Ethiopia.
no, this was just the list for april
Kim jung un too
When matpat makes a Rick and Morty joke:
Everyone: *laughter*
Me:
(laugh with them and they think you know what they're talking about)
Everyone: *hoping everyone else won't find out they don't know what the others are talking about*
endless pretend-to-know-what-they're-talking-about cycle
The fifth wall was broken when Rick mentioned the coronavirus, breaking the wall out of your living room and into the global community
Great episode I love how they make the viewers really sit and think deep about what is going on every episode is about the world we are living in and how complex it can be
This makes sense to me, I’m a bit embarrassed to say that i’m obsessed with Rick and Morty. But i’m fine with change, as long as it still has it’s funny factor.
Katsuki Bakugou hold up hold up who tf are u
KatsukiBakugo BAHHAHAHAHAH I LOVE THIS
You have to be fine with?
The front of the train is in the shape of a pen quill.
1:02
For people who wants to observe the image of the front frame of the train.
Good video, I honestly didn't think about this episode that deeply. I just thought they were trying to show that they can do whatever they want, that they are not stuck in
a narrative that certain fans expect. It can go wherever they want.
I LOST it at “AM I ON THE TRAIN?!” Lmao
This episode is like trying to understand the timeline of back to the future.
100,000 subscribers without any Vide LOL
EXACTLY
You only have 1 sub
Nope the timeline of back to the future was quite simple there are way more complex timelines
Oh oh meme man
Film Theory: How Rick and Morty predict the giant Hornets
Javier Santana Avilés but hey that’s just a theory a film theory
Ok good
Why does this say ep1 season 1
Near that it says tv theories so I guess he is starting tv theories edit grammar
Random hornet event
,,Aliens!" **shows Zim**
Me: *Oh boy... you have summoned a demon*
Dan Harmon does tacky episode structures super well. Whether it’s multiple great bottle episodes in community or great anthology style episodes in Rick and morty
I initially didn’t really understand or like this episode, but with the whole deeper explanation I definitely appreciate it more! Thx Matt!
I knew that this whole episode was a farce when 'Evil Mortys' Rick Army was not wearing the same uniform he gave them at the end of the Citadel episode.
Could have been upgraded battle armor to counter our ricks bio-mesh
@@gatsbyhalliday6970 Doubt it. It would be too inconsistant. This episode ain't canon.
This is by far my favourite episode to date. Super meta but I could rap my head around it in the moment without breaking my Emersion. So many twists it was dope
16:30 I thought he was about to say Bill Nye! LOL
